I have mine on a cabinet in the front room. It's like an extra living room, but we really don't use it for much. The a/c doesn't run in there, so it's the best place.
It's also the room I keep my brooder in.
I have an indoor/outdoor wireless thermometer. I put the remote unit inside the bator, and keep the display on my desk net to my computer monitor.
I just hatched yesterday, and moved my little babies to the brooder today.
DH hasn't noticed yet, but I just now snuck outside and collected 14 new eggs & stuck them in the bator!
At this rate, I will hatch all year long!
